Why women in UK go abegging for sperm donors?

London, Nov 13 (IANS) Where have all the generous sperm donors in UK gone?Lately, the country is facing a severe shortage of such ’seminal’ Samaritans. The problem has become particularly acute after the anonymity tag to protect their identity was removed in April 2005.

Although the move may have benefited children, who can now trace their biological parents when they attain the age of 18, it made donors back-off double-quick.

Reproductive experts pitched in for a slew of new measures in the British Medical Journal to keep their figures up after drastic decline in the number of donors.

Currently, many clinics struggle to recruit donors, have long waiting lists for those needing treatment, have high costs, the doctors said, according to an online report.
